I got a generator after ours went out for 2 days last February on day 14 of my duck incubation. Hubby was out of town and temps were below zero, and all I had was a wood stove.

I have 6/7. I waited until the last one hatched then checked on the zipped one and it was dead.

5 Silkies and 1 LF chick. 3 are still drying. Here's the first 3. The first to hatch was the only vaulted skull Silkie (top right).

Last 3. Last one is the dark one.

Now 1 week wait for the next batch in this staggered hatch.

Caught up!

Thanks - spoiler added!

I don't know - how would I work out whether there was bacteria present?

Welcome. With my eggs, there was honey like fluid. But Sally may be right with temps, sometimes they just quit.

Several hundred posts to catch up on, did I miss anything important?
You all are killing me with those chick pictures! I ''need'' some chicks now!

[COLOR=FF0000]@All[/COLOR], Just out of curiosity, what do you do with all these chicks you hatch? Do you keep them all, or sell them?

Keep usually, have never sold a chicken before. Have given some away to BYCers and friends...

I am really curious- how old is everyone? And where are you located? I'm 27 and in Kansas, USA

Im Under 21 and in northern CA

I am one of the younguns like prizepete and chicken hawk... Under 21. I'm in MI.

I'm not sure... I just assumed they are going to be white when they get older... These are the first baby silkies I've ever hatched or have seen. There was a white roo and a splash roo in with two blue or black hens. I'm not quite sure how to tell if the hens are black or blue... They look black but I was told they were blue.
